The respondent did not even bother to reply.
They could have settled out of UDRP and salvage their reputation.
Even when you a big domainer you have a responsibility to review and clean out your portfolio. Anybody who looks at this domain can see it's a personal name and not a generic. It's hard to demonstrate a legitimate use when you're sitting on a personal name. Especially when it matches the name of a celebrity.

Looking at the WHOIS, which was updated yesterday, it looks like GoDaddy handed this name over voluntarily. I expect the UDRP complaint to be withdrawn.

Looking at the WHOIS, which was updated yesterday

Looking at the WHOIS owner, the domain is now in the hands of a law firm (and) as of now, Amy-Schumer.com forwards to AmySchumer.com.

This law firm also handled the UDRP of Nike.News, which resulted in Nike winning the complaint and receiving the domain. HERE

I expect the UDRP complaint to be withdrawn.

The UDRP still says pending. Will the UDRP update with cancelled, or how does it work when the domain is transferred without a judgement.

Fans and critics have an absolute free-speech right to own the domain names of companies and celebrities. If you want to be a critic or reviewer of a celebrity or a company you would surely want a domain name that contains their name. This is why Verizon owns verizonsucks.com. UDRP rulings need to be challenged in the courts. The UDRP are stooges for the rich and powerful.
